Former model Natasha Prince has accused magician David Blaine of raping her at his Chelsea mansion in 2004, the Daily Beast reports.
Scotland Yard told the Daily Beast that it is investigating Prince’s claims.
“Officers from the Met’s Child Abuse and Sexual Offences Command are investigating an allegation of rape,” their statement said. “The allegation was reported to police on 17 November 2016 by a woman who alleged she was raped at an address in Chelsea in June or July 2004 when she was aged 21. There have been no arrests at this stage and enquiries continue.”
Blaine’s attorney Marty Singer denied Prince’s accusation in a statement given to TheWrap:
“My client vehemently denies that he raped or sexually assaulted any woman, ever, and he specifically denies raping a woman in 2004,” Singer said.
